Starting the Probe

NOTE

If you are using the Bootp server method of configuration, do not attach the power

 

cord and Agilent Power Module (0950-2546) to the probe until told to do so in

 

Chapter 4 “Bootp Server Configuration”.

 

If you used the local terminal method of configuration, attach the power cord and

 

 

Agilent Power Module to LanProbe. The probe does not have a power switch, but

 

is powered on when power is attached. When powered on or reset, LanProbe runs

 

self-tests and transmits ICMP echo frames to the default gateway for the purpose

 

of allowing the probe to be discovered by the routers (ARP cache). The probe

 

transmits four ICMP echo request packets about 10 seconds after booting and

 

again every autodiscovery echo interval. Refer to Chapter 5 “LanProbe

 

Operation” for more information on resetting the probe.
